Arby's Roars into Unicorn Frappuccino Territory With a Wild New Drink

Arby’s saw Starbucks’ Unicorn and Pink Pegasus Frappuccinosand decided to one-up them with a manlier version that fits in with their meat-heavy menu. Unicorns don’t pair well with Arby’s roast beef, apparently. "Despite rumors of magical skills, the liger is a very real and breathtaking beast," Arby’s says in their announcement.

The chain’s new Liger shake, named after the tough-as-nails offspring of a male lion and a female tiger, was created from an equally unique blend of two of Arby’s milkshake flavors—Orange Cream and Ultimate Chocolate. The orange-and-brown ombré shake is then poured into a cup that that was striped withGhirardelli chocolate sauce giving it a unique liger-like look.

While Starbucks has opted to name its limited edition Frappuccinos after mythical creatures, Arby’s purposefully sought out a real animal and the liger fit the bill, perhaps as a nod to the movie Napoleon Dynamite, where the main character frequently ligers and talked about their magical powers. “Despite rumors of magical skills, the liger is a very real and breathtaking beast,” the Atlanta-based chain notes in their press release.

The new drink is available throughout the month of June and while ligers are tough (and liger shakes sound delicious) we’re still banking on the S’mores Frappuccino besting it in a fight—or whatever milkshake Waffle House comes up with when they inevitably join the fray.
